      NOMMU: Fix the RomFS Kconfig to ensure at least one backing store is selected · f52fd5b7
      David Howells 提交于
      Fix the configuration of the RomFS to make sure that at least one 
      backing store method is always selected.  This is done by rendering it 
      down to a choice item that selects between Block, MTD and both.
      
      This also works correctly in the case that CONFIG_MTD=m: MTD cannot be 
      selected as a backing store unless CONFIG_ROMFS_FS is also 'm'.

      NOMMU: Make it possible for RomFS to use MTD devices directly · da4458bd
      David Howells 提交于
      Change RomFS so that it can use MTD devices directly - without the intercession
      of the block layer - as well as using block devices.
      
      This permits RomFS:
      
       (1) to use the MTD direct mapping facility available under NOMMU conditions if
           the underlying device is directly accessible by the CPU (including XIP);
      
       (2) and thus to be used when the block layer is disabled.
      
      RomFS can be configured with support just for MTD devices, just for Block
      devices or for both.  If RomFS is configured for both, then it will treat
      mtdblock device files as MTD backing stores, not block layer backing stores.
      
      I tested this using a CONFIG_MMU=n CONFIG_BLOCK=n kernel running on my FRV
      board with a RomFS image installed on the mtdram test device.  I see my test
      program being run XIP:
      
      	# cat /proc/maps
      	...
      	c0c000b0-c0c01f8c r-xs 00000000 1f:00 144        /mnt/doshm
      	...
      
      GDB on the kernel can be used to show that these addresses are within the
      set-aside RAM space.
